As slirpvde will be rewritten with lwip6 this should disappear. Hello again, I have more information for this 'bug'. Well, it's actually not the bug I thought, since the error is due to poor error handling. In my experimentations with the package, the command line I used to use was wrong, hence the Bus error. Looking at the source code it looks like he main problems are because a lot of error checking (even as innocent as File not found) is not done, hence carrying around NULL pointers. In particular the problem was after vde_open in slirpvde.c (around line 429) which doesn't check if the open was succesfull, and after vde_datafd (around line 443) where the return value is not check (in this case the previous open failed). thanks graziano ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Luca Bigliardi (shammash) Date: 2010-07-03 16:47 Message: newer slirp improves error handling ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=611248&aid=1991343&group_id=95403 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?
